How about “4. DON’T be distracted while driving. NO listening to music or podcasts in your car or looking at your phone. You want to be able to hear the sounds of traffic and see what's happening around you.”

I’m not at home and in a different time zone. Does the rapture happen at different times to accommodate?

Same thing happening in Canada. Both Ontario and Alberta Provincial governments meddling in city efforts. FORD trying to remove existing infrastructure as well. www.ctvnews.ca/toronto/arti...

Heads up folks on wheels, and doggos on paws, there's a large pile of broken glass in the green painted bike lane beside the Newport restaurant on Churchill at Scott. I don't think there's any point in 311ing it, so I'll try to remember to borrow a little hand broom from work today.

Jamie with the deets. Things the mayor never shares in his austerity budgets.

I think we found some $ Mark #autowa

I propose a new thread, combine two chocolate bar names. I’ll start, “Crispy Milk”, “Dairy Crunch”?

Just 2 gun rights advocates sitting behind a wall of bulletproof glass while enjoying a memorial for a gun rights advocate who got murdered by a gun.

Stands on street with no sidewalks. What do we need with extra development charges or red tape for accessibility, eh?

I want a Star Trek Tribbles Christmas Special. It couldn’t be worse than a Star Wars Wookiee one…

Saw a patient in the ER that was struck by a car while riding their bicycle. They noted that they were not intending to make a police report because the driver had stopped and been nice. Mutual kindness is heartwarming, but there are reasons why making an official report is important. 1/ #bikeTO

In my news feed

Ottawa! Please spread the word! We need to show our elected officials that "We'll get to equality once we figure out tariffs, balance the budget, etc." is all kinds of BS. Ottawa's "Take Back the Night" march starts at Minto Park at 6pm that night and will meet up with this event on the Hill.

How long does it take to make the turn from St. Patrick to Mackenzie from the time the light turns green? Well that depends on how you're travelling: by car, it's about 13 seconds, but on a bicycle it'll take you more than 3 minutes because the lights favour #autowa instead of #ottwalk or #ottbike.

So upsetting. @mayormarksutcliffe.bsky.social a waste of tax $

The fine for parking on the sidewalk is $55 and in a bike lane $120. The fine for parking in an accessible parking space with no permit is $500. As they all impact #accessibility, why are they not all $500 fines? 🧐 #Ottawa #Ottbike #Ottwalk

Grok is being sent to the reeducation camp

We don’t give you a fridge for the beer, why should the city give you free parking for your car?

Some of the Canada 150 playground equipment at Mooney's Bay is looking pretty rough.

@ncc-ccn.gc.ca knocks it out of the park with its first BikeNight

Hi @mayormarksutcliffe.bsky.social I got your email; it’s interesting that the only option is to support; no option to share thoughts without saying yes. 1/

When your wife’s cousin’s husband has a Greek home in a small port town on Lefkada island and says you can borrow it…. You borrow it… and walk 130 metres and jump in the Mediterranean Sea.

Reminder, tonight #ottbike: ncc-ccn.gc.ca/open-ncc-bik...

When in Greece…

#ottbike I have officially released a new version of my Ottawa cycle map website Obike.ca You are now able to click on projects for more information, it will highlight the project scope, along with displaying a preview image. Can then also view a project page with images and designs of the project

“Just one more austerity budget, bro. Next year we’ll have cash in the bank, I promise”

Hydra is pretty nice, no cars! Just cats and a Leonard Cohen bench.

This driver will receive no penalties as this action does not deviate from the standard and was a whoopsie. Judges have been ruling like this for years. You and I suffer the consequences.

Ottawa is 3 trains 🤷‍♂️

Today in #Autowa: Tesla driver almost drives straight into the #ottbike lane at Colonel By (and if not for the narrowed entry way I'm sure they would have kept on going). (Apologies for uncontrollable laughter.)

I am not allowing myself to think of the devastation of the parents, children, and families (😭) - but seeing enough posts in my timeline about the headlines and lack of agency given to the driver does have me thinking about him. His life has also been irrevocably changed. 1/4

We are selling our Yuba electric cargo bike, three years old with a ton of accessories: www.kijiji.ca/v-ebike/otta... #ottbike

Just want to re-up this article to ask, can we admit that just talking about bike lanes and “active transportation” is an utter failure yet? We’ve moved on to be “anti-sidewalk” now. The story frame is broken related to infrastructure for people outside of cars #ottawa www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

The Gladstone/Percy cycling study originally proposed contra-flow bike lanes on Percy and bike lanes on Gladstone. Now, instead of a simple left turn onto Gladstone, the proposal would have a north-westbound biker go from Percy to Flora, Bay, Gilmore, Bronson, Christie, Arthur, THEN Gladstone.

Get hit by driver, who’s charged, still have to cover all your own medical expenses.

I just found some savings

As soon as you hear "beauty and character of the neighbourhood" to oppose steps to make a neighbourhood more #accessible .... NIMBY Alert! I think a great compromise in this situation would be to turn these streets into pedestrian priority space! 🧑‍🦽🚶‍♀️🚲 No sidewalks required! 😉 #ottawa

#Ottawa #Osgoode Link Pathway news: even though the city councillor for ward 10 was hoping the pathway would be open between Lester and Leitrim Roads for #biking by the end of August, it is still closed. Detour is via Albion Rd. This may be of interest to @richardkbethell.bsky.social & #ottbike

Way to cave in

They’re wearing sandals ✔️

Make sure to wear a helmet and make eye contact! 1/3 of the Ottawa population received speeding tickets? #autowa

Imagine a 100m race where we’ve given cars an 80m head start after many decades of building almost ONLY for them. If we then set a transportation goal of “balance” between many more choices in getting around, by definition we have to prioritize the new choices for a while, or they’ll never catch up.

Struck by a driver

So this is a road around the @ottawahospital.on.ca. I was waiting for someone to meet me so out comes the phone and commentary at just 1 of the all way stop signs on the road. #autowa never fails to deliver.

Nope… #ottBike

Shared Responsibility. @thebikinglawyer.bsky.social

Hi @ottawabylaw.bsky.social can you park on the median on Hospital Link Road? Grass is wrecked and they encroach on the Multi Use Pathway.

Did Americar write this headline?

📣 As of 5:30am Trillium pathway detour is closed between Carling and PoW with no "detour of the detour". I managed to push aside the construction cones and proceed through the work zone. If it reopens, please share!🧑‍🦽🚲🚶‍♀️ Now for my rant...sorry! ⬇️ #ottwalk #ottroll #ottbike #ottbiketraffic
